That is such a lovely truthful song. As you would know, you need to hear it, and especially toward the end of the song it is as if she is (I think the word is) keening, a sort of cry of pain....but it is such a beautiful and sad song, especially....
Oh the bottle has been to me
My dearest friend my worst enemy
Afraid that I've walked a fine line
Squandered it all and wasted my timeIt is simply the most beautiful song.
I've enjoyed "Motherland" too, though not (so much) the earlier 10,000 Maniacs.
